The service is fantastic, so fantastic. The food is on the higher end price wise but also quality wise. Everything we had was delicious. The porco preto basically melted in my mouth. I don’t like meringue but their dessert was beautiful, interactive, and not too sweet. It was honestly a great meal even though we were exhausted that night. We had the red wine that’s made there, and it was very good. They also gave us glasses of champagne that’s made there (well sparkling wine) which is our favorite way to start a meal! Even better we were able to bring what we couldn’t finish to our room.

The Divinus restaurant service was very welcoming and very attentive. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. Without living negative details, I'm just saying that I don't think the food will revive the place and service. I think the reviews are pretty inflated. For the price point of this fine restaurant, I think the cook has to do better. When I accepted a positive comment, I spoke privately with the head of the service, and he heard and recognized my opinions and offered compensation for my concerns without challenging my opinions. I hope the kitchen is able to significantly improve the food because this is a special place to visit. (Translated by Google) Este restaurante está en un espectacular edificio que es un convento histórico revertido en un hotel de cinco estrellas con dos restaurantes y otros servicios. El servicio del restaurante Divinus fue muy acogedor y bastante atento. Desafortunadamente, la comida fue decepcionante. Sin detenerme en detalles negativos, solo diré que no creo que la comida esté a la altura del lugar y el servicio. Creo que las calificaciones de revisión están bastante infladas. Por el precio de este establecimiento de alta cocina, creo que el chef deberá hacerlo mejor. Cerrando con una nota positiva, hablé en privado con el jefe de servicio y él escuchó y reconoció mis opiniones y ofreció alguna compensación por mis preocupaciones sin cuestionar mis opiniones. Espero que la cocina pueda mejorar significativamente la comida porque este este es un lugar especial para visitar.

Highly recommend the tapas- the lamb slider is possibly the best thing I’ve ever had to eat. The sea bass was delicious and the lobster risotto was the best I’ve had outside of Maine. Wine that was suggested was a perfect pairing with our meal. And dessert… the strawberry rhubarb pavlova was out of this world! The prices were very reasonable for this quality and it was a wonderful evening.

Price was too high compared to what you pay at other places in Portugal.
